Tax-exempt organizations face special legal issues in addition to the legal issues all businesses face. These issues relate to their status as nonprofit corporations and organizations that are exempt from taxation. We are experienced in recognizing these issues and how an organization’s operations are affected by its exempt status. Our clients include health care facilities, social service organizations, charitable entities, trade associations, social clubs and family foundations. We assist clients in forming the organization and obtaining tax-exempt status. Once an exempt organization is operating, we also assist our clients on matters such as private inurement, property tax exemption, unrelated business income, and board governance. We also counsel many of our tax-exempt clients in commercial, real estate and employment law matters.
